My cousin Diane was in town from Maryland for a week so we met up for breakfast and a walk around Sandwich to shoot pictures. It was a very quiet Monday morning between Christmas and New Years and a gorgeous day.
The town had some early evening events planned for New Years Eve, or First Night as it's called around here.
Grist Mill
Newcomb Tavern (which I think is either a private home now or a B&B).

Shawme Pond
Glass Museum
And the "soft glow of electric sex in the window" at the Heart of Stone gift shop.
Nice pix as usual. Interesting buildings. Wish I had the ability to wander around taking photos.
ReplyDeleteThanks. We're very lucky to live in such a scenic and historic area.
DeleteBeautiful photographs :) Not sure what to make of that lampshade though! Definately not one I'd want in my house - I like a bit quirky, but I'm obviously not too quirky LOL! xx
ReplyDeleteThanks! I guess you guys have never seen 'A Christmas Story'? It's a classic here....one of the stations plays it for 24 hours straight on Christmas Eve to Christmas Day. That's where the leg lamp comes from. That quote about 'the soft glow of electric sex in the window' is a line from the movie. In fact, I would venture to say that most Americans, upon seeing the word, 'fragile' on the outside of a box or package, will say, 'Fra-JEE-lay....must be Italian'. Also from the movie and was on the box the lamp was in.
DeleteAs usual, stunning photographs. I'm reconnecting with cousins that I grew up with on FB.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Well fortunately Diane and i have always been in touch...in fact she's more interested in texting or talking than keeping in touch via FB!!!
DeleteLOL love the glow of electric sex in the window! HA HA The leg lives! And loved the reflection shots. Stunning!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy!!!! I have a leg lamp nightlight but I haven't used it in this house. lol
DeleteYou are an amazing photographer. I love looking at your pictures. I especially love the rustic door.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Debi. I appreciate your kind words!
DeleteCall me weird but I adore the greenish gray fence. Just calls to me
ReplyDeleteSandwich is a very pretty town. And hey! We just found out that Lay's Potato Chips is shooting an ad there because nothing goes better with Sandwich than chips!
